Red Sox vs Rays
As the American League champion who returned home from the World Series last year, although the light of this season has changed hands, the continuous production of newcomers from his own farm has filled the gap left by the two big pitchers. In terms of playing the line, the Rays have scored the tenth attack index of the league with a few young people, and the super rookie Wander Franco has added the last piece of the puzzle of the line after the major league, making the Rays more dead-ended.
Compared with last year's American League champions, the Red Sox can reach the playoffs this season is really unexpected. The Red Sox scored the third-ranked 0.777 attack index in the league, and the "East China Powder Depot", which is famous for its long-range artillery fire, is not at all inferior. Amazingly, the Red Sox pitcher group improved from last year's dismal 5.58 ERA to this year's 4.26, and the return of several key injured soldiers such as Chris Sale played a big role.
The first game of the series was won by the Rays, led by a blast and a brilliant home run by the new "Mr. October" Randy Arozarena, plus a five-inning shot by youngster Shane McClanahan, the Rays went first in the series.
The Red Sox took the lead in the first set of the second game to snatch two points from the Rays rookie Shane Baz, but in the second half of the game, the Rays relied on a five-pointer, including Jordan Luplow's slam cannon, to take the lead and knock Searle out of the field. However, today's Red Sox feel very good, several stars in the center of the club can be said to be a baseball blossom, coupled with the relay newcomer Tanner Houck performed very well, and the Red Sox finally won 14-6.
White Sox vs. Astros
Before the start of the season, the White Sox were optimistic that they could win the Central Division of the United States, and under the leadership of the meritorious veteran Tony La Russa, the White Sox will also successfully take off the division championship that has been missing for more than a decade. Thanks to the excellent performance of a group of Cuban generals, the White Sox never had to worry about offensive firepower. The White Sox pitchers also excelled, finishing with a 3.73 ERA in fifth in the league and a 1,588-hit triple in the league.
The Astros sit on the league's second tough playing line, and the unpromising group of pitchers in the opening season has also successfully turned around after several young players have grown rapidly, and even the rotation is too full, so that several outstanding newcomers must start from the cowshed. The talented pitcher group finally handed over a 3.76 self-blame rate to rank seventh in the league, which was also unexpected.
Facing the Astros' horror playline, the White Sox pitchers were slightly weaker in the series. The Astros scored consecutive scores in the 2nd to 6th innings and scored ahead with ace (Jr.) Lance McCullers Jr. and the bullpen to win the opening goal.
In the second game, the two sides drew 4-4 in front of the two sides, while the Astros defeated the White Sox in the seventh game with a wave of 5-point attacks including Kyle Tucker's two-run cannon to win the series 2-0 absolute advantage.
Atlanta Warriors vs Brewers
As the Champion of the National League Eastern Division for three consecutive years, the Warriors were still the hot champions at the beginning of this season, but a series of injuries made the Warriors sink all the way down. However, in the end, the Warriors still reached the top in the relatively weak National League East, becoming the last team in the National League to confirm the promotion to the playoffs.
The Brewers are a team that fights the weak and the strong. With three potential Celerons contenders in the starting rotation, he led the Brewers pitchers to a third-place 3.50 ERA in the league and also gave the Brewers a bloody path in the chaotic League Central. Compared to the strong pitcher group, the Brewers' playline can be said to be the weakest link in this playoff team, with an attack index of 0.713 only ranking 20th in the league, and several key indicators are mostly ranked in the back of the league.
Like most brewers won this season, the first game of the series was won by the super-oppressive power of the pitchers. Corbin Burnes managed to keep six runs in the run, and Rowdy Tellez took the lead with a crucial two-run blast in the seventh inning. Although the Warriors pulled back a run in the eighth and a third base in the ninth, the good thing was that Terminator Josh Hader eliminated old teammate Orlando Arcia to help the Brewers come out on top.
Dodge vs Giants
As the league's newest galactic battleship, Dodge's goal this season is also simple: to defend the world championship! The Dodgers' lineup is still luxurious this season, and several mid-season deals have added to their strength. But injury concerns are also there, casting a shadow over their playoff prospects.
Compared with the Dodgers, this season's giants can have such results, I believe many people have broken their glasses. Relying on a group of rejuvenating veterans, the Giants have to win one victory after another in a period of unoptimity. The veterans of "less than thirty-three, not in San Francisco" played one by one not to lose the performance of young lads, helping the Giants to win the first place in the league.
The series of battles between the Giants dodgers has always been the focus of the league, and now it will only be more intense to the playoff stage, and the giants have taken a 10-9 lead in 19 games between the two sides this season. In the playoffs, the first game of the series, the Giants blocked the Dodgers' line with 7.2 innings and 10 hits, and the offensive end relied on a three-shot home run to take the lead and finally took the first city in the series 4-0.
